The Art Residency of Princess Tenisheva in Talashkino, Smolensk Oblast
🔻Princess Maria Tenisheva played a significant role in the development of the Neo-Russian style and Russian art during the Silver Age.
🔻Tenisheva's unwavering commitment to preserving traditional Russian crafts and folk art led her to amass an extensive collection of ancient artifacts. The completeness of her collection allowed scholars to trace the evolution of Russia's oldest artistic centers.
🔻To foster the preservation and development of traditional crafts, Tenisheva established a school for peasant children and a center for folk art. In addition to basic literacy, the school offered artistic workshops.
🔻Products from Tenisheva's workshops were showcased at exhibitions in Russia and abroad. At the Paris Exposition Talashkino embroidery quickly became fashionable, with Parisian women eagerly adopting "à la russe" blouses.

In 1941, a vodka ration was introduced in the USSR for the troops of the Red Army.
🔻Frontline units and commanders were entitled to receive 100 grams of vodka or rectified spirit per day. The spirit was diluted to the strength of vodka and issued based on the intended dilution, a ratio of 1:2.
🔻The vodka ration was soon curtailed; vodka was issued to everyone before an offensive and only as a reward to successfully advancing units.
🔻German soldiers received schnapps from their commanders. In 1942, they received half a bottle every day and a half, regardless of success. In 1943, this was reduced to only Sundays. From mid-1944 onwards, receiving schnapps became a cause for gloom among German soldiers, as it signaled their imminent deployment to a hopeless counterattack against Russian positions.

• Достаться на орехи (perf., reflex.)
[das-ta-tsya na a-re-khi]
SLT: To get it on/for the nuts
🔻The phraseological unit has nothing to do with nuts! Its meaning is closer to to get into trouble or to get a scolding.
🔻The idiom originated from the fact that nuts were a popular and affordable treat for children in Russia. Fathers would often give their children a few kopecks to buy nuts on their way home from work. However, if the children misbehaved in their father's absence, their mother would threaten them with the words "Вот отец вернётся, будет вам на орехи!" (When your father gets back, he'll give you (money) for nuts!) hinting, however, at the soon punishment from father but not the money to buy treats.
Example:
• Кому-то достанется на орехи за такие шутки!
[ka-mu-ta das-ta-ni-tsa na a-re-khi za ta-ki-ye shut-ki]
🇬🇧 Someone will get into trouble over jokes like those!

🇷🇺 Не в силе Бог, а в правде. Ибо с той земли, что обагрена кровью воинов наших, не уйдет ни один враг без наказания. Кто с мечом к нам придет, от меча и погибнет — таков закон земли русской. (Aлександр Невский)
🇬🇧 God is not in power, but in truth. For from that land that is stained with the blood of our soldiers, not a single enemy will leave without punishment. Whoever comes to us with a sword will die by the sword - this is the law of the Russian land. (Alexander Nevsky)

🇷🇺 Утро начинается не с кофе. Утро начинается с мысли, что надо было лечь пораньше ...
🇬🇧 Morning doesn’t start with coffee. Morning starts with the thought that it was necessary to go to bed earlier ...
• Пораньше (adverb)
[pa-ran'-she]
=
• Раньше (adverb)
[ran'-she]
(A bit) earlier
🔻Both words come from the adverb 'рано' (early).
🔻'Пораньше' sounds more informal than 'раньше':
• Завтра нужно встать раньше/пораньше.
[zaf-tra nuzh-na fstat' ran'-she/pa-ran'-she]
Tomorrow you need to get up earlier.
🔻Also comparative:
• Мой кот встаёт раньше, чем я.
[moy kot fsta-yot ran'-she chem ya]
My cat gets up earlier than I do.
🔻'Раньше' is also used in reference to past events:
• Раньше я ложился спать до полуночи. (masc.)
[ran'-she ya la-zhyl-sya spat' da pa-lu-na-chi]
I used to go to bed before midnight.
